Dr. Larry Crabb in his book "Connecting" writes this: "Ordinary people have the power to change other people’s lives… "The power is found in connection, that profound meeting when the truest part of one’s soul meets the emptiest recesses in another and finds something there, when life passes from one to the other.... The power to meaningfully change lives depends not on advice, though council and rebuke play a part; not on insight, though self-awareness that disrupts complacency and points toward new understanding is important; but on connecting, on bringing two people into an experience of shared life…. "I have come to believe that the root of all our personal and emotional difficulties is a lack of togetherness, a failure to connect that keeps us from receiving life and prevents the life in us from spilling over onto others. I therefore believe that the surest route to overcoming problems and becoming the people we were meant to be is reconnecting with God and with our community. But reconnecting, at its most healing levels, is no simple matter. In our fast-paced, get-it-done culture, it is rare…." So how can we foster this life-changing community within Hope?
